CONDITIONING HERBAL INFUSIONS
The herbs listed below are known for supporting a healthy scalp and beautiful hair. Each herb is individually infused into Organic Golden Jojoba oil - some for a month or more. This process enhances the therapeutic properties of both the jojoba and the botanicals. The end result is herbal infused oil that is a readily absorbed, nourishing nectar for your hair shaft and scalp.

Golden Jojoba Oil (Simmondsia chinensis): Naturally rich in lipids and peptides which create a soft, silky feel with long-lasting conditioning effects on the scalp. Jojoba balances the sebum production for all skin types. It contains all forms of the natural antioxidant Vitamin E. In fact, the highest amount of tocopherol and phenolic compounds can be found in this golden oil. Like Seabuckthorn oil, Jojoba oil promotes healthy hair and skin because it contains many of the bio-available components that our own natural oils contain and need. Jojoba is so easily absorbed by the hair that it makes a perfect vehicle for the deep nourishment of the herbs to be delivered to the cells in the hair and scalp.

Chickweed (Stellaria pubera): This herb bursts with vitamins, including Vitamin C. As an herbal infusion, chickweed offers soothing lubrication to the scalp and hair. With its sweet little, white blooms, chickweed grows abundantly and is loved for its healthful benefits by people and animals, including chickens, which give it its name.

Marshmallow (Althea officinilais): A beloved ingredient in hair care, marshmallow has a lovely, slippery texture which helps soften and detangle the hair. Its mucilaginous compounds are filled with proteins and vitamins that deeply condition the hair.

Slippery Elm (Ulmus rubra): Slippery Elm is another mucilaginous herb with slippery, soothing benefits that help to detangle and soften the hair. Slippery Elm comes from the bark of the tree native to North America. It also helps prevent “fly away” and frizzy hair.

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa): Alfalfa is rich in nutrients, including a number of trace minerals as well as Vitamins K, B5 and C, which are particularly beneficial for healthy hair growth. Alfalfa is a highly nutritious food for the hair.

Lavender Essential Oil (Lavendula vera officinalis): Lavender oil brings its familiar calming fragrance to the mix. It supports healthy hair growth in a loving and gentle way.

Rosemary Super-Critical Extract (Rosmarinus officinalis): Rosemary is an herbaceous revitalizing tonic with a refreshing, penetrating aroma. In our conditioner we use a special super-critical extraction which boosts rosemary into a super-antioxidant classification. This type of extraction yields a potent and pure nectar of rosemary which contains hundreds of plant bioactives. Researchers at the University of Catania in Italy have shown that super-critical rosemary extract helps protect skin cells and may prevent age-related skin damage. The study also showed that rosemary contains a particular antioxidant which preserves a protective protein in the skin called HSP70.

The role of this protein is to reduce the damage that stress, free radicals, and other toxins inflict upon skin cells. This antioxidant is known to strengthen the skin’s capillaries, and it also strengthens the stability of our conditioner. This complete symphony of rosemary allows you to experience all the gifts that this beautiful plant has to offer your hair. Rosemary strengthens and nourishes the whole head: hair follicles, shaft and scalp. It helps keep the hair that you have healthy and happy. Super-critical rosemary will bring on the shine, volume, and vibrancy in your hair.

Sage Supercritical Extract (Salvia officinalis): Sage is a clarifying, cleansing botanical. We use a special super-critical extract of sage in our conditioner which brings out the plant's highest nutrient potential. Sending CO2 flowing through the herb at high pressure and low temperature, super-critical extraction allows sage to fully shine with hundreds of plant bioactives and antioxidants. This fragrant symphony of sage yields powerful medicinal benefits for the hair and scalp. Its super potent antioxidant activity helps to protect and rejuvenate hair that has been exposed to heat, chemicals, or the elements. Sage deeply cleanses and balances the hair and scalp, while its refreshing fragrance clears the mind.

ADDITIONAL HAIR-HEALTHY INGREDIENTS:
Rosewater: Rosewater has long been revered as both a vital skin and hair tonic. It stimulates the hair to grow with health and vibrancy. The grace and sweetness of roses are innately healing to the hair. This sacred floral dew has natural moisturizing properties that revive the scalp and nourish all hair types. Rosewater is known to make the hair strands stronger and invites your lovely locks to be their best.

Bladderwrack Seaweed (Fucus vesiculosus): Bladderwrack is a succulent seaweed that is naturally mucilaginous. It works to stimulate and tonify the hair. Have you noticed that people from regions that ingest an abundance of seaweed traditionally have the thickest, most beautiful hair? Bladderwrack feeds the roots and shaft of the hair with essential vitamins and minerals like calcium, magnesium, B vitamins, silica, and antioxidants.

Aloe Vera (Aloe barbadensis): Aloe vera is a botanical gem from the desert that ensures proper balance of moisture and promotes healthy hair growth. Aloe vera is known for its powerful cellular rejuvenation benefits as well as for its ability to balance pH. Aloe is so easily absorbed because many of its mineral and vitamin compounds closely mirror the body’s own. Aloe will harmonize oily hair and moisturize dry hair.

Tamanu Oil (Callophyllum inophyllum): Tamanu oil comes from a nut found in the South Pacific where it has been historically used as medicine. Tamanu is very nourishing to the hair, skin, and nails. This nutty oil has an exotic fragrance and provides amazing regenerative properties for hair. It promotes new growth and has a soothing quality for the scalp. In addition, its antibacterial benefits make it a wonderful addition to any scalp/hair care ritual.

Apple Cider Vinegar: Our apple cider vinegar is filled with vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and enzymes. It is a wonderful rinse to improve the shine of your hair. Apple Cider Vinegar is also cleansing and prevents build up. It leaves your hair feeling soft and silky, and gives it amazing shine!

Orange Wax (Citrus aurantium dulcis): Orange wax is a semi-solid wax that is extracted from the pressed peels of oranges. This special wax contains beneficial phyto-sterols and antimicrobial properties. Furthermore, it serves as a natural emulsifier which enhances the stability of Longevity Warehouse® Golden Jojoba Conditioner, binding all the ingredients together. Orange wax also lends a sweet citrus scent and beautiful color to the conditioner.

Lime Essential Oil (Citrus aurantifolia): With its fresh, citrusy scent, lime essential oil supports shiny, happy hair. Lime cleans the hair by releasing trapped dirt and oils and renewing luster.
